If you prefer gaming, the TCL S455 has a slight edge. However, if you watch a lot of cartoons and animations, the Vizio V-Series '22 offers better performance. Both TVs struggle a bit in bright rooms and aren't ideal for dark room viewing due to their low contrast and black uniformity. The S455 is usually less expensive, making it a more budget-friendly option. On the other hand, the Vizio supports more HDR formats, which might enhance your movie-watching experience if you have HDR content. Both TVs have similar sound and resolution quality, so these factors shouldn't significantly impact your decision. Give Feedback

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers TCL S455 (LCD) to be only fair for movies & TV, while the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) is poor.
The TCL S455 stands out for better contrast and black uniformity, which enhances movie-watching in dark scenes, whereas the Vizio V-Series '22 falters with less effective contrast and poor black uniformity, compromising deep blacks. Additionally, the TCL provides more accurate colors out of the box and stronger local dimming boosts its performance for cinematic content, whereas the Vizio, despite its excellent out-of-the-box colors, lacks local dimming altogether, diminishing its overall movie experience.

The TCL S455 (LCD) and Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The TCL S455 and Vizio V-Series '22 both have fair response times, crucial for clear motion during sports, but neither excel in motion processing, leading to potential motion blur or artifacts. While both handle reflections decently and have similar viewing angles limiting off-angle viewing quality, the TCL S455 has slightly better response time, yet both exhibit unremarkable gray uniformity affecting the visual uniformity on the screen.

The Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) and TCL S455 (LCD) are both poor for gaming.
The TCL S455 and Vizio V-Series '22, both LCD TVs, are considered poor for gaming because of their suboptimal response times and input lag, which are crucial for a smooth and responsive gaming experience, and they have a standard refresh rate of 60Hz that isn't ideal for fast-paced games that benefit from higher rates.

The TCL S455 provides a fair SDR brightness performance and handles reflections decently, making it a reasonable choice for a bright room. In contrast, the Vizio V-Series '22, while also having fair SDR brightness, does not handle reflections as well, resulting in a poorer viewing experience in well-lit environments.

"A highly affordable but reliably kitted-out 4K Roku TV that, while far from perfect, still punches above its price and delivers a great user experience. If you want to soup up movie night for a bargain, the 4-Series won’t let you down. You may never need to plug in a set-top box or streaming device."

About TCL
TCL, the highly recognizable TV brand from China, has firmly established itself as the second-largest manufacturer in terms of sales volume. Renowned for striking an impressive balance between affordability, picture quality, and design, TCL TVs deliver a compelling overall package. While they have traditionally excelled in the low-end and midrange TV segments, TCL has recently made remarkable strides in the realm of high-end televisions, introducing impressive models that rival top competitors. Most TCL TVs use Roku software which is very user friendly and easy to use, but they have a few other models that use Google TV which has the largest app selection, but is not as user friendly as Roku.
About Vizio
Vizio is an American company. While they initially gained recognition for offering budget-friendly TVs, they have successfully expanded their product lineup to include high-end options as well. They manufacture TVs primarily in Mexico, China, and Vietnam. Similar to many Korean TV brands, Vizio developed its own smart TV software called SmartCast. In the past, SmartCast was not the best smart TV software, but it has evolved so that it is now good for using your TV and connecting to streaming services.
